Sometimes travel writers don’t really want to tell the world about a special place. They fear that it will become too popular and be overrun with tourists. We have to weigh up the benefits of promoting somewhere truly amazing, including considering the positive impact it can have on the local economy, with the danger of overloading the area with visitors.
Because Formentera is an island in Spain in an already developed and booming tourism industry, it’s safe to point people this way and let them discover the quieter side of the Balearic Islands.
Formentera has sandy and rocky beaches with crystal-clear waters. The island’s beaches radiate a refreshing and calming vibe, and are great for water activities, such as diving, snorkeling, underwater photography, and windsurfing. You can also find party beaches to dance and enjoy cocktails and chupitos.
